Timeline
John Eric Nord (born October 18, 1959) is an American retired professional wrestler.
He is best known for his appearances with the American Wrestling Association and World Class Championship Wrestling in the 1980s as Nord the Barbarian and Yukon John and with the World Wrestling Federation, All Japan Pro Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling in the 1990s as The Berzerker and under his birth name.
He debuted in late 1984 under the ring name "The Barbarian" for Mid-South Wrestling, where he was managed by Skandor Akbar.
He also worked for New Japan Pro-Wrestling.
In 1985, the AWA originally promoted him as a member of the New Jersey Generals of the United States Football League.
In 1986, he became Nord the Barbarian and wrestled in singles and tag team matches (under manager Sheik Adnan El-Kaissey) in the American Wrestling Association.
Nord then went to World Class Championship Wrestling in 1987.
As Nord The Barbarian he was (managed by Gary Hart), where he feuded with Kevin Von Erich over the WCWA World Heavyweight Championship.
He challenged Von Erich for the title at the fourth annual David Von Erich Memorial Parade of Champions at Texas Stadium in 1987.
In 1989, he returned to the AWA under the name Yukon John (a lumberjack gimmick where he would come to the ring with an ax, dressed in blue jeans, flannel shirt, animal skin hat and boots).
He mainly competed in singles matches, until forming a tag team in 1990 with Scott Norton, called The Yukon Lumberjacks.
They briefly feuded and won a series of matches with The Texas Hangmen.
They challenged The Destruction Crew for the AWA World Tag Team Title, but won by countout.
After the American Wrestling Association closed in 1991, Nord joined Pacific Northwest Wrestling as "Nord the Barbarian".
He formed a tag team with The Grappler called "The Breakfast Club".
After winning matches, Nord and The Grappler would humiliate their opponents by pouring Cheerios and milk on them.
In February 1991, Nord joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) as The Viking.
The following month he was renamed The Berzerker, given Mr. Fuji as a manager, and began feuding with Davey Boy Smith and Jimmy Snuka.
During his WWF run, Nord utilized a toned-down version of the gimmick of his deceased former partner Bruiser Brody in portraying a clumsy and cartoonish Icelandic Norseman.
His preferred method of winning matches was by throwing his opponents over the top rope for a countout, all the while holding his wrist, licking his hand, shouting "Huss! Huss!", crossing his eyes, and falling flat on his back.
He wrestled as part of a four-man team in an elimination match at the 1991 Survivor Series pay-per-view event.
He was the last man eliminated for his team.
He wrestled in the 1992 Royal Rumble for nine minutes until being eliminated by Hulk Hogan.
He then feuded with The Undertaker, at one point attempting to stab him with his sword.
In July 1992, he won a 40-man Battle Royal on WWF Prime Time Wrestling, and challenged Bret Hart for the WWF Championship that November.
Nord's final appearance was as a participant in a battle royal on the February 15, 1993 edition of Monday Night Raw.
In 1994, Nord traveled to Japan where he competed for All Japan Pro Wrestling under his real name.
During 1995 he was inactive.
In 1996 he wrestled in Malaysia as the Viking.
Then he went to South Africa to work for All Star Wrestling.
Later that year he wrestled in the independent circuit in Texas.
In 1997, Nord joined World Championship Wrestling (WCW) with bleached blond hair and a horseshoe moustache, under his real name, John Nord.
He wrestled mainly on WCW Saturday Night and had a long winning streak that ended with a loss to another streak holder, Bill Goldberg, on July 4, 1998.
Nord then formed a short-lived team with Barry Darsow, and was soon gone from WCW.
